Cleaning

Set

The print head in the BJ cartridge contains nozzles through which ink is propelled onto the paper. To maintain the best possible print quality, these nozzles need to be cleaned from time to time. Your MultiPASS C70 is equipped with a print head cleaning function that does this.

Printing the Nozzle Check Pattern

Before cleaning the print head, you may want to print the nozzle check pattern to test the BJ cartridge installed in the MultiPASS C70. This test shows if each print head nozzle is operating properly.

Follow this procedure to print the nozzle check pattern:

1.Press Function.

2.Press Cleaning.

NOZZLE CHECK

3.Press Set.

❏ The MultiPASS C70 prints the nozzle check pattern.

When the BC-21e Colour BJ cartridge is installed, the pattern includes all four colours; yellow, magenta, cyan, and black. In the colour pattern, you will notice that lines are missing between the colours. This is normal.
